What Aurora may truly turn out to be is a complex "occult" (as in the original meaning of the word, "hidden," not "paranormal") synchronicity story of which more and more is being revealed daily. Joker and other copycats will focus the Aurora incident in other directions as we see the breathtaking nature of the red dawn event fade from the attention of the media and Twitter nation. It is becoming integrated into our culture, nevertheless. The facts are that, on a synchromystic level, layers of the onion are being peeled back carefully as we move away from Friday, July 20th.

For example, today's news mentions that James Holmes, the alleged shooter, will not be seen on court room cameras broadcast into your front room any longer. But the visual imagery that appears to be an important part of this drama continues.

Accused movie theater gunman James Holmes is spitting at jail officers so frequently that he is being made to wear a face guard, sources told ABC News.

What does this quickly imprint in the public?

Bane from The Dark Knight Rises, of course.

But it goes deeper. What does James Holmes look like with this jailhouse mask?

We have no idea what James Holmes, in his jailhouse face guard, looks like, so in this visual age, expect courtroom artists, if they are allowed, to give us new images for the future.

Meanwhile, questions remain. One was pointed out to me this morning in an email from Andrew Griffin, Editor at Red Dirt Report. According to a news items in the Toronto Sun: "MSNBC reports that public records show Holmes lived with two roommates at the apartment, which is reserved for students, faculty and staff from the medical campus."

But if you go to the original MSNBC account, oops, the mention of Holmes' alleged two roommates has disappeared.

What is going on here?

Meanwhile, the entertainment news continues. We learn that actor Christian Bale (Batman, The Dark Knight trilogy) and his wife Sandra "Sibi" Blažić (staff, Red Corner) visited victims and a memorial to the victims of Friday's mass shooting, on Tuesday, July 24, 2012, in Aurora, Colorado. Nice placement of the Red Sox cap in the photograph, I'd say.

The week moves along. Be careful. A storm is coming.

It has been brought to my attention that after my blog was published early this morning, the Drudge Report posted the following. Of course, the link to the Liam Neeson character in Batman Begins makes more sense to me, but each to their own metaphor, I suppose.
